Père Lachaise Cemetery (with baby)

The first time you visit Père-Lachaise Cemetery you sometimes don't realise that it's the largest cemetery in Paris. From first glance at the entrance gate it doesn't tell you much until you enter and explore. I visited with friends and had few "famous tombs" to find but we abandoned the idea earlier and just wandered around and be surprised. Few tombs stand out in relation to its unbelievable fun...

An excellent place to visit in France and pay your respects to some of the most famous people in history. A little haven of peace in the very centre of Paris. Take a good pair of shoes and be prepared to walk for a long way.

A very old, interesting, and wonderful cemetery. Walking through the cemetery gives you a tour of both history and art. I highly recommend it. It would be easy to spend an afternoon here.

Of my 5 visits to Paris, I’ve been here 3 times. This most current visit was the quickest as it started to rain as soon as we entered. Our biggest mistake was not taking a photo of the map as soon as we entered. We ended up bumping into a couple of Americans with a map so we ended up getting a snap of theirs. We didn’t really have a solid plan. All I knew was that I wanted to see Jimmy and that’s...

A good site to visit in Paris. There are many interred here who have influenced and inspired you — even if you don’t know it yet. During peak tourist season there are a number of friendly attendants to provide maps and directions. Toilets are in the south. Some accessibility concerns: many ways are cobbled and some steep, although there is a slope going around the whole cemetery.
